RE: Inaugural Haiku - King Bob - 12-06-2021
Fine early morning
Ginkgo leaves slowly turning gold
Still seeing the stars
RE: Inaugural Haiku - Drunk Monk - 12-07-2021
Ginkgo trees are old
Once they were called maidenhair
Such erotic leaves
I took ginkgo pills
For memory improvement
Forgot to take them

Apparently recent research shows no benefit from taking it anyway
Playing an instrument is good for the brain though

I remember now
I took it for tinnitus
Did not help at all
RE: Inaugural Haiku - King Bob - 12-07-2021
Helped the pocket
of the manufacturer
And that's how it goes

Shaolin gingko trees
Line the walk behind the gate
Leaves made tasty tea

Haikus by Comedians from The New Yorker, from an upcoming book. My favorite is the one about Bobby Flay.

Flying on Southwest
Trapped in a middle seat between
Two oversized men
RE: Inaugural Haiku - King Bob - 10-29-2022
That's a bad one. I was in the same spot on a flight to Denver once.

Very cold this morning,
walking to the Art Building.
Glad to have my hat.
It occurred to me that people (me anyway) tend to read haikus with equal pauses between lines, but that probably isn't always the way the poets intended.
RE: Inaugural Haiku - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 12-02-2022
I do same.
RE: Inaugural Haiku - King Bob - 12-03-2022
Reading the haiku? Or wearing a hat? My hair is so thin that I even wear a hat inside at home sometimes.
